2 WINCH OPERATION The silo unloader is raised and lowered by the winch. Winches are either manual requiring cranking; or are electric and operated by an electric motor. Crank the manual winch clockwise to raise the unloader. Turn the unloader on and let the winch down one or two turns LESS than the number of turns it was raised at the end of the previous unloading. Usually the silage surface will "raise" between feedings. Approximately 5 cranks equal 1" of cable travel. To speed the unloader raising process, an electric drill adapter can be used in place of the crank. It is recommended that a 3/4" drill be used for raising. CAUTION: BE AWARE THAT WITH USING A HIGH SPEED DRILL, THE LARGER THE WRAP ON THE DRUM BECOMES THE GREATER THE LOAD ON THE WINCH BECOMES. THEREFORE, AS THE UNLOADER NEARS THE TOP, CHECK THE GEARCASE AND IF IT BECOMES TOO HOT TO TOUCH (120 DEG. F) STOP OPERATION UNTIL IT COOLS DOWN. IMPORTANT: The first layer of cable must be wound making sure all cable layers are wrapped evenly and tight. IMPORTANT: Check oil level at oil level plug before raising. Otherwise check (4) times annually. If using an electric winch, it is best to use a "count" or time system to regulate the winch. The ammeter should be referred to when setting the unloader cutting depth for proper performance of the unloader and to maintain a uniform unloading rate. The ammeter reading will normally fluctuate during operation and the average reading should be "read". Slowly lower the unloader until the "reading" corresponds to the figure. For more exact amperage check the name plate on the specific motor installed. An optional electric winch enables remote controlled lowering and raising of the unloader at low speed. To raise the unloader, push and hold the control switch lever up. To lower, push and hold the switch lever down. The switch lever is spring loaded and turns off when released by the operator. OPERATING THE UNLOADER Position the Torque Arm on the lower silo door sill opening. Put the gooseneck in position. When starting in any silo for the first time, the surface should be reasonably level. Allow the unloader to level off high spots before operating at full load. Lower the unloader slowly until the silage flow is constant and the Ammeter "reading" becomes steady for about 5 minutes (one complete unloader Revolution.) When the amperage drops and silage flow lessens, lower the unloader. Experience will tell you about how often and how much lowering is required. Lowering rates should remain constant from one feeding to the next unless freezing weather or change in stored material occurs. WARNING: SHIELDS AND COVERS ARE FOR YOUR PROTECTION. BE SURE THAT THEY ARE IN PLACE BEFORE OPERATING. FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. If the unloader stops discharging, shut it off immediately. Raise it and determine the cause. See the Trouble Shooting Section. After unloading, raise the machine about 15 turns of the winch, or sufficiently high to lift it off the silage surface. Allow the machine to run a couple seconds to completely clear itself of silage and then turn the switch off. When the silo is empty, clear all silage accumulation off the machine and raise it off the silo floor. 2

3 SPECIAL INSTRUCTION FOR CABLE INSTALLATION IN A PARTIALLY EMPTY SILO When installing unloader in a silo that is not completely empty the following method should be used to install the suspension cable. Also refer to section titled CONNECT SUSPENSION CABLE AND LEVEL. 1. Measure the distance from the top of the silo staves to the silage level. Dimension "A." 2. Measure the distance from the bottom of the silo (include pit if one exists) to the center of the winch spool. Dimension "B." 3. Subtract "B" from "A" and subtract an additional (1) ft. This equals the distance "C" which is from the top lug on the cable assembly to the center of the winch. If "C" is a negative value then it indicates that this amount of cable lug length should be wrapped onto the winch spool. EXAMPLE: "A"- "B"- 1 = "C" 8ft - 5ft - 1ft = 2ft INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS UNLOADER SUSPENSION 3

4 WINCH INSTALLATION 1. Attach winch angles to winch assembly with two 1/2" x 1" HHCS, nuts and lockwashers at the bottom and with two hook bolts at the top of vertical mounting plates on rear of winch. 2. Attach name plate to winch angles with four 1/2" x 1" HHCS, nuts and lockwashers. 3. If necessary, loosen two silo hoops enough to insert four hook bolts. 4. Attach winch assembly to silo hoops with hook bolts in the holes matching the silo hoop spacing. Hooks can be turned up or down as required. NOTE: Make sure center of winch is located directly under pulley on tripod leg. Tighten all bolts securely. 5. A socket head capscrew located between the gearbox and right hand winch drum flange is provided to secure the end of the suspension cable. Loosen setscrew and thread cable end through hole in winch flange, then tighten setscrew to clamp cable end securely. CAUTION: THE FIRST LAYER OF CABLE MUST BE WOUND MAKING SURE ALL CABLE LAYERS ARE WRAPPED EVENLY AND TIGHTLY. 6. Check oil level in winch gear housing at oil level plug. If necessary add No. 90 all-purpose gear lube oil until oil flows from oil level hole. Replace plugs making sure vent in filler plug is open. ELECTRIC DRILL ADAPTER (OPTIONAL) To speed the unloader raising process, an electric drill adapter can be used in place of the handle used for manual operation. It is recommended that a 3/4" drill be used to raise larger unloaders. 4

5 TWO SPEED POWER ATTACHMENT (OPTIONAL) The following figure shows the optional 2-speed power attachment completely assembled on the winch. 1.) To install the unit, first bolt the mounting plate to the winch base with two 3/8" x 3/4" HHCS, Nuts & Lockwashers. 2.) Attach the counter shaft assembly to the mounting plate with four 5/16" x 3/4" Crg bolts, nuts & lockwashers. Make sure notch in the front flange of the countershaft assembly is facing down. 3.) Attach bracket to mounting plate with four 5/16" x 3/4" HHCS, Nuts & Lockwashers. 4.) Attach motor support bracket to bracket with two 5/16" x 3/4" HHCS, Nuts & Lockwashers. 5.) Attach the motor mount plate to the motor with four 5/16" x 3/4" HHCS, flat washers, lockwashers & Nuts. Tighten securely. 6.) Assemble the motor and mount plate assembly onto the motor support bracket with pin and (2) 1/8" x 1" cotter pins. 7.) Place the large diameter sprocket on the winch stub shaft with the hub in. Position the sprocket so that the face of the sprocket is flush with the end of the shaft. Tighten setscrew. Position the countershaft sheaves and motor sheaves as shown on figure. Install V-belt (outer sheaves for feeding, inner sheaves for raising). 8.) Fasten shield to winch assembly with wing bolts as shown on the figure at right. 5
